  2020-04-15

  

  Our study revealed elevated basal Akt phosphorylation in diet-induced obesity, the effect of which was reversed by ETAKO. Activation of Akt promotes cardiac hypertrophy via a number of cellular mechanisms including activation of its downstream targets such as mTOR and GSK3β [45, 46]. Short-term acti

  2020-04-14

  

  To explore the mechanism behind differential activation kinetics, Marcott et al. (2018) manipulate local dopamine dynamics. They show that differences in dopamine concentrations are not responsible for different D2R activation kinetics, since D2-IPSCs reach similar amplitudes at different rates in N

  2020-04-14

  

  Introduction Angiotensin II (Ang II) and Endothelin 1 (ET-1) are potent vasoconstrictive peptides recognized as key players in many cardiovascular diseases [1]. Cardiac hypertrophy, ischemic arrhythmia, and stroke have been associated to an overstimulation of the angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) recepto

  Genomic and non-genomic signaling crosstalk As exemplified in the previous sections, it is evident that the mechanisms of action of estrogen in the various cell targets represent a combination of complex multifactorial processes. Besides the independent genomic and non-genomic pathways described

  2020-04-14

  

  Our results indirectly support the combination of resveratrol and hesperatin treatment for PDN, as this induces GLO1 activity in patients (Xue et al., 2016), as well as metformin, an FDA-approved anti-diabetic treatment, which acts as an MG scavenger to reduce MG levels in type 2 diabetic patients (

  2020-04-14

  

  In general, we observed that the enolase gene with highest mRNA levels was TVAG_043500, under all three iron concentration conditions. mRNA levels for this gene are very similar in normal and iron rich cultures (73.9 and 78.1 fold change, respectively), and higher in iron depleted cultures (118.3 fo

  2020-04-14

  

  Molecular characterization of LEI/L-DNase II LEI, like most serpins, is a metastable protein and its anti-protease activity is related to its “stressed to relaxed transition”. So that, the inhibition of elastase by the well described suicide mechanism generates the cleaved form of LEI (see Padron

  2020-04-14

  

  Mammalian Cyclophosphamide monohydrate have two distinct DNA repair pathways for DSBs, NHEJ and HR. Our data are consistent with the suggestion that the DNA–PK-mediated NHEJ pathway recognizes DSBs faster than the HR pathway and acts before the activation of the DNA damage S-phase checkpoint. The a

  In this report, we present spectroscopic evidence on the effect of different solvents having proton acceptor and proton donor ability and pH of the medium on the abstraction of amino proton of PI (Scheme 1) for controlling the nonradiative rates. Despite the general utility of PI as a DNA intercalat

  2020-04-14

  

  Methylation of histone tails is important in regulating adenosine receptor antagonist structure and transcription. Methylation occurs at arginine and at mono-, di- or tri-methylated lysine residues. The reversibility of histone methylation was recently revealed by the identification of two histone d

  On the other hand, the IL-8 promoter activity induced by the signalling cascade of the CysLT1-G300S receptor is higher than that of the WT receptor. The chemokine IL-8 is mainly involved in the recruitment and activation of neutrophils and we have previously shown that this chemokine gene is a targe

  As we all known, hypoxia is a hallmark of tumour microenvironment, which is a key regulator of tumour growth and metastasis [4]. Hypoxia meditates a series of cellular responses including angiogenesis by activating transcriptional factor hypoxia inducible factor (HIF), which is consist of an obligat

  Introduction Prolyl hydroxylation is a widely observed post translational modification in collagen, an abundant animal protein. The high content (~13% per chain of the triple helical structure) of 4-hydroxyproline (Hyp,O) in collagen, togather with the natural abundance of collagen has led to the e

  Acknowledgements The oxygenation level has an impact on various aspects of skin physiology, but mechanisms of these effects, including the role of hypoxia in epidermal differentiation, are still poorly understood. The main components of the hypoxia pathway are short-lived transcription factor H

  In untreated rodent or human hepatocytes, PXR or CAR is stabilized by cytoplasmic co-chaperone partners like heat shock protein 90 (HSP90, Fig. 1). Upon ligand binding, the nuclear receptors are freed and translocated into the nucleus, identified as a pivotal step in PXR- or CAR-mediated transactiva
